Signs for Smash Daddy, Maroochydore

The jobN°001

Smash Daddy is a new burger restaurant opening in Maroochydore, and its signs went up ahead of its opening. We made and installed the shopfront's new fascia signs and light box signs — the pieces a first-time customer reads before they have seen a menu or smelt a burger.

For a new restaurant, that first impression is the signage. The fascia has to be readable from the street and the car park, and once the light box signs come on, the shopfront has to keep working after dark — which is when a burger restaurant does much of its trade.

That is why fascia signs and light box signs are planned together rather than ordered separately. The lit and unlit pieces share the same type, scale and placement, so the shopfront reads as one scheme by day and by night instead of a flat sign with a box added beside it. Our guide to illuminated shop signs covers how lightboxes, halo-lit letters and face-lit forms actually work.

A fast-turnaround shopfront fit-out leaves no slack in the schedule — the signs need to be made and installed on time, by one team, so the opening is not waiting on a second contractor. This is the kind of Maroochydore business signage we do every week: fascia work and the wider business signage around it, for new venues and established operators across Maroochydore.
